Why Chelsea are no longer the big club they use to be

This is according to football consultant, Ian McGarry, in his recent statement, he made it known that the Blues are no longer one of the big clubs they used to be because they signed Gonzola Higuain, who couldn’t get playing chances in Juventus.

He also pointed to the Blues move of signing former Liverpool star, Fernando Torres to show how far they have fallen.

“We’ve already seen an example of this in the January window when Chelsea brought in Gonzalo Higuain, who was already out on loan from Juventus because he wasn’t playing well at Juventus,” he told The Transfer Window podcast.

“His performances have been average at best. He’s also 30 or 31 now, it just shows you how far Chelsea have fallen, if you like, from the state of the elite super rich, which they still are theoretically.

“But you think five, six years ago they broke their own transfer record in January to buy Fernando Torres, who of course if they done their due diligence and found out he had a dodgy knee then they might not have paid that money for him, but effectively they bought one of the best strikers in the world in the January window.

“And now they’re getting a guy on loan who can’t even get a game at Juventus.”

Transfer News: Jorginho’s Agent Refuses to Rule Out Juventus Switch

Jorginho’s agent Joao Santos has uncovered that the midfielder would have no apprehensions about joining Juventus this summer regardless of his past loyalty to Napoli and the way that he had recently announced that the Italy international was ‘100%’ staying at Chelsea next season.

After a much-commended start, Jorginho battled halfway through the campaign gaining himself some pain from a segment of the Blues’ fanbase but turned it around towards the end of the season to complete emphatically.

In any case, the ongoing connections including Maurizio Sarri with an return to Italy, and explicitly the Serie A champion Juventus.

​And, addressing Radio Marte in Italy, as cited by TMW, Santos asserted that his client would have no issue with joining Sarri at La Vecchia Signora.

Talking on the connections, the agent stated: “I think they [Chelsea] are concentrated on the Europa League final. For Jorginho it was a really splendid season, he played 50 games and completed third in the Premier League, is in the final in the Europa League and plays for the Italian national team.”

Jorginho might stay or go with Sarri Maurizio if he leaves Chelsea this season, either way Chelsea has better players to take up his role in the midfield.
